Colonel A. T. McCain, expert Asso
ciat-ed Press operator who has been
in charge of the leased wire at the
Greenville News is back on his job
with this issue of the paper, having
returned from a (ligitit vacation
trip whilh he spoint near listovecr,
south of ColumbIa. While on his va
cation he was relieved by "1r." \\'is
Ier who became a full-tledged Green
ville boo.ster in two weeks' time, hav
lng coatlra ct d tihe boosting germ dur
ing his Iifelenl years residence in
Charlotte, N. C.
Col. Alc('ain upon his return looked
natural in every respect Save his new
green pinch back cap, which is said
by all haberdashers to be absolutely
the latest and most nobby headwear.
The colonel, it is understood, bought
this cap in the dark and when the
light - dawned upon him lie was many
miles from Laurens, making the time
in almost nothing in his Ford.
Col. McCain was accompanied by
.Mrs. McCain and their little daughter.
While at Eastover the colonel prov
ed that he was adept at the art of
hunting 'possums, and also handy
with the gun in quest of birds. lie
never went afield without bringing
home the "bacon," except the night
that a big greasy 'possum flirted with
his right hand and lie dropped the
sack in self defense and the 'possum
of course led another chase.
After ten (lays of sport and rest,
the colonel "flivvered" home, stop
ping for a few days in Laurens coun
ty. The Ford ran on schedule time
and there was not the slightest ac
cident to mar the full pleasure of tle
outing.--Greenville News.

llarnony, Dec. 4.-1 don't want you
and the many readers to think 1 have',
forgotten you at all but try to get it
in your minds that 1 am just restlug,
ats this is tiny custom.
The first matter' I want to tell you
about is in regard to the Princeton
and Ware Shoals Good load associa
tion. 'This organization had a meet
ing at this place last Wednesday ev
ening and Dr. W. T. . ones gave us a I
short but enthusiastic speech along
the line of good roads and congratulat
ed the organization upon the success
they were having in regard to building
this important highway. The reports
.from tie various committees in regard
to subscriptions were very ecou rag
ing and It Is hoped that our county
supervisor will conie to our rescue and
only do what is necessary on his part.
This link of road fron Princeton to
Ware Shoals will be nicely completed.
The surveying is going on today lown
near the shoals. We already have a
public service motor truck running
daily from Mr. G. B. Taylor's store to
Greenville. It has a regular schedule i
and distributing points all along the I
line. They carry passengers, freight
or produce of most any kind that is
wanted shipped. We do hope this will
prove to be such a necessity that it
won't be long until we will have a
trolley car taking Its place.
Well, the trustees of the Mt. ltethel
school have secured land out on the
public road, a healthful situation, and
are putting up a tice school building
and they, with the patrons and friends,
are to be congratulated for the success
they are having.
The health of this place is good, as
far as we know.
People are about done gathering
their crops and sowing grain. Some
have been killing hogs and a great
many more to kill before Christmas.
I had forgotten to say'that this Good
Road association will meet at Mr. G. B.
Taylor's store next Thursday evening
at 2 p. in. Everybody interested in
good roads are cordially invited to be
'present. It is the intention to get ev
erybody and their kinsfolks to attend
this meeting, so don't forget the date
next Thursday at 2 p. im. sharp.
